Hi Raman,
Thanks for the explanation and the changes.
You made me realise that I have no clue what goes on in the Makefile. I’ll 
learn from the syntax and look deeper into that, thanks.
I also wanted to reassure you that I know everyone is busy, and sending an 
email is not my first reaction to encountering an issue. That is what I hope 
to illustrate by always including the steps that I took to debug or resolve 
it. When I send an email asking something, it’s because either (1) I wonder 
if I’m understanding the intention correctly or (2) my skills and Google 
haven’t turned up a solution, likely because I’m encountering an “unknown 
unknown”.
I’m always very open to learning, so if you or anyone else on the list has 
concrete steps I could take, or resources I could learn from, feel free to 
share – I commit to taking action on getting better at solving my own 
problems.
Thanks.
